Quick Summary
In UK income tax law, individuals are classified as either 'Resident' or 'Resident Not Ordinarily Resident' (RNOR). When the Act simply refers to 'resident', it generally encompasses both these categories unless a specific section states otherwise. It's important to note that RNOR status is a subset of being a resident, meaning you must first be classified as a resident to then be considered RNOR.

Yes it will cover both ROR and RNOR unless otherwise stated in the section..
Yes it covers both
"PERSON" as defined under Income Tax Act have been classified into three types.
Resident
RNOR
Non-resident

So wherever Act says Resident , it means Resident and not others. Resident and RNOR both are mutually exclusive.
Person is classified in 7 categories...and not 3..
and word resident has been defined as resident u/s 6...
after an individual is classified as resident...
it will be either ROR or RNOR
Note that my above reply is not on category of persons.

it's on residential classification of each person.

that is Resident , RNOR, Non- Resident

Few categories of persons are by default "Resident "
Sir when you say that Resident and RNOR are mutually exclusive.. I don't agree with that you can't be RNOR without being resident..
ans whenever act specifies resident it will..
include both.For example rebate u/s 87A
rebate will be available to both ROR and RNOR..as section specifies resident
